    Yeah, if this was on regular FSN, fine, and I'd give them kudos for an entertaining night of boxing. But asking for 50 bucks for this is ludicrous. Whoever had the idea to make it PPV is a moron in the first place, even if it was just 20 bucks. This is less than a week after PBF-Baldomir and just a week before Pac-Morales III. Between those two fights, roughly 800k people will be spending at least 50 bucks and probably about 200k will buy both and be out 100 bucks, right before the Christmas shopping season. How many people are going to pick this crap over either of the HBO PPVs? Nobody with a sane mind.

    IDIOTIC programming. HBO even wanted to move a December 2 PPV because it was too close to the Nov.4 and Nov. 18 shows. This is right smack in between, and FSN will take a bath on this. Holyfield may sell tickets, but no way he still sells $50 PPVs fighting Oquendo with two noncompetitive showcase fights on the undercard.

        Well said, couldn't have said it any better. If people are anywhere like me, in which you are comfortable but not ****** rich then you wont buy every single PPV out there.

        I spend about $100-$150 max a month on ppv fights (Boxing or MMA) and I just dont think I'll waste my money on this fight.

          I read somewhere that this fight is priced at $ 44.95, like that's a big difference!

          But, I'm honestly considering buying this ppv because this maybe one of Holyfield's last professional fights before he retires. Holyfield has given boxing fans alot of great fights over the years and hopefully this one proves to be just as exciting.

          C'mon, where's all the love for Holyfield?

              I can see PPV, but at 50 dollars it's buyrate is going to suck

              I would have ordered it for 24.95 or so. Now I'm not sure...

                  for me, $25 is even a stretch. and that's for what, 3 fights?

                  please people, do not buy this!!!!

                  we do not need the clowns making enough money to think that they can keep putting together ppv cards like this. there's not even a title fight on the card!
